d the fight renewed, when the Heights were retaken, and the pieces recaptured, with a number of others. In the fight on the upper line yesterday, in addition to the prisoners mentioned, some two thousand others were captured, and five batteries of field artillery. From this fact some idea may be formed of the character of the fight, and the extent of our triumph. It is stated that Gen. Lee regards it as one of the most satisfactory victories of the whole war. There is a report that Gen. Stuart had succeeded in destroying the pontoons of the enemy last night, thus cutting off their retreat. I sent you a letter yesterday, which, I presume, the capture of the train at Ashland prevented reaching you. I hope this note, hastily written, will be more fortunate. You will hear from me again to-morrow. It is believed that the fight is for the present ended, though there is tolerably heavy cannonading going on now at Fredericksburg. B.

feated forces left the field. Many prisoners were captured, some three thousand of whom have reached this point. Among them is Brig. Gen. Hays, who commanded a brigade in Gen. Couch's corps, and his aide-de-camp, Captain Echols. The prisoners brought here represent some forty different regiments, and, as usual, are mostly men of foreign birth. Among the officers whose names I have heard mentioned as killed are Gen. Paxton, of Stonewall Brigade; Colonel Walker of the 10th Va; and Colonel Mallory, of the 55th Va.

M., Monday, May 4, 1863 Many reports have doubtless reached you of the fight at "Wilderness Church." yesterday, which, in many respects, was perhaps one of the bloodiest of the war. Our loss is heavy, both in officers and men; but, through the aid of a merciful Providence, victory once more perches upon the banners of the South.
